^^ an asterix. your uai is * a few of my mates got it

according to my teacher i'll make it to mid band 6... let's hope he's right :)

Laz... Regardless of the relatively unknown raw marks... It is true that scaled marks used for the UAI are generally lower than aligned marks (which are the only ones we see anyway), correct?

i picked it this year without really knowing what i was in for... i just learned the world cities thing, even though my teacher told me not to bother, and MEIN GOTT! it's a complete fucking toss! this city is very important, blah, blah blah. this town is getting smaller, while the other...

it doesn't at all ey spin spin sugar :) modern history has just over average scaling - 27 = scaled mean last year. unless you get over 97/98, your scaled modern history mark will be lower than the mark that is reported to you. there is no point in even talking about raw marks because they...

one more tip - don't beat me in the hsc! ;) anyway, no worries :) best of luck!

looks like your maths wont count. you do the same subjects as me, except i do economics instead of legal studies. i have UAI seeker, so i put in your subjects (cept eco instead of business) said it said 88.85. keep in mind though, economics scales better than legal... last year the...

geo is so piss easy i'm not too worried... but my picks are evaluation of ecosystem management, or something else to do with human impacts or the need to manage ecosystems i have this funny suspicion the question will be along the lines of 'evaluate the effectiveness of ecosystem...

bah you'll just look like a rip off one of the things you get marked on is elements of flare, creativity, etc... you will not get it by making use of that. it's age old

the question is mr leftism... do you spend your time trying to help others, sacrificing how far you'll get in life to get some equality happening... or do you fuck them off, and spend your time furthering your own position in society?

^^ not quite the case... scaling is complicated as all fuck, but as i understand it, it is based on the performance of the entire state... not your school. few subjects scale up. and the ones that do only scale up when you're approaching the top few percentiles. 85 in subject X might...

^^ that is the case with all subjects. get 94% in ancient and they'll scale it to 87 for UAI purposes. get 96% and they scale ya to 91 for the UAI! get 99% and they scale it to 97%. get 100%, and they should leave it at that... (dont kill me laz!) buy the UAI seeker for...

in my humble opinion, funkmistrssdina :)

i just had a thought - the UAI ranks you against your year 10 cohort... i'm repeating, so when i get my UAI this year, will it be ranking me against my year 10 cohort (year 10 class of 1999) or against the year 10 cohort of this years hsc (year 10 class of 2001 i believe)? and, if the case...

gidday, i've posted something along these lines elsewhere, but it really applies to ancient history more than anything else, so i figured i should ask it here... is anyone trying to predict questions for their topics this year? like, for the greek world 500-440bc... the last 2 years out of...

well, i got 24/25, 23/25, 22/25 and 19/25 for my trial... 19/25 was stupid boring sparta, so i'm studying it lots to make sure i do better in the hsc :) ive got all the info sorted, now its just a matter of memorising loads of quotes ;\ we should get a quote resource going here

^^ easily! what's more, most people write at 16 words per minute, meaning a 45 minute essay = 675 words. averages of course. i can do nearly 800 in 45 minutes, but i've sacrificed some degree of neatness for speed. i seriously do not think anyone on this planet could ever write 1250. typing ur...

fuckin word according to uaiseeker, get 85% in the HSC, and it scales to 69 for UAI purposes. if you're after like 99+, that means you can afford to lose about 15 marks (scaled) across all of your other exams!!!! ancient sucks.

check this out for the kyklos, periplus and diekplus. they were naval formations http://www.inisfail.com/~ancients/greek-naval.html

for greece 500-440bc, i suggest you investiage the following the delian league and its transformation to an athenian empire (there has been a question on that last 2 years in a row, its 3 dot points in the syllabus, you simply gotta know it) also find out a bit about the peloponesian...
